This core is in charge of the overall administration of the four projects that form this PPG. Many of the investigators have been associated with the PPG for as long as 15-23 years. Indeed, the strength of this PPG is the long-standing interaction of the PI's of the individual projects and their respective teams. The close collaboration among the various projects has enabled the development and testing of new hypotheses in the field of protection of the newborn against infection by his/her mother's milk. The core provides administrative support to the 21 investigators in the various projects. This support includes: 1. Maintenance of the specimens collected from the 1987-1991 and current (1998-2003) cohorts of 622 mother/infant pairs from the studies conducted in Mexico. In addition, the PPG now includes cores and projects in Cincinnati, Mexico, Boston and Houston. 2. Maintenance of the database generated by the PPG from 1987 on. 3. Maintenance of close links with other specialized cores: Molecular Biology (Cincinnati), Glycobiology (Boston), Epidemiology and Biostatistics (Cincinnati), and the Mexico Core. 4. Supervision of the clinical study sites in Mexico and Cincinnati.
